China's Regulatory Change: The Evolution of National Medical Products Administration

The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview and review of the major regulatory changes that National Medical Products Administration has undergone in China since 2015 in order to accelerate new product production and registration in accordance with international standards, as well as to raise the profile of Chinese medical products on a global scale. China's regulatory structure has always been highly complex. China's health authority has been modifying the organisational structure in China in order to bring Chinese therapeutic products up to international standards in terms of suitability, safety, and dependability, as well as to more likely locate individuals' general prescription drug requirement and expand access to new drugs and treatments from around the world. By applying worldwide standards and technical criteria, enhancing review and approval transparency, and speeding up the examination and approval of new drugs, medical devices, and other items, all of the regulatory improvements are making it simpler to manufacture creative products. The Chinese Ministry of Health has also published instructions on medication development and technical evaluation, as well as the implementation of electronic common technical documentation and post-approval safety surveillance. Regulations for priority review and approval, a data protection system, imported medical product registration, and new product categorization have all been put in place to encourage the development of innovative goods. China's regulatory framework is in the process of being overhauled. In the near future, it is conceivable to accomplish simultaneous growth and approval on par with existing regulated markets.
